As I said... we don't support 3rd party drivers ourselves, so this is currently something you have to get support for from your hardware vendor directly (if they provide such support). Phoebe contains XFree86 4.3.0 (4.2.99.x previously), and to my knowledge, ATI has not yet released 4.3.0 updates of their drivers. You'd have to wait until they officially support 4.3.0 I guess. However, as I stated in another mail too, Radeon 9000 is directly supported with both 2D and 3D in Phoebe already. Hope this helps. -- Mike A.
